(original story on my blog: . )
Here you go! Chapter 1 of "Go To Sleep" a horror Smosh fanfiction. This is a boring chapter and I'm not good at writing, or beginnings, so please bare with me. :)
Anthony's P.O.V. (Point of view)
I hate planes. [1] I can't help but imagine something going wrong. Someone messed up in the head standing up with a bomb, setting it down, and then parachuting away. My fiance, Kalel, says I'm paranoid. I can see why.
With my job, hating planes makes my life suck. I guess it's not technically a "job", but I do get money from it. I make YouTube videos with my best friend Ian and people seem to love them.
Since I live with Kalel (and another YouTuber Joey Graceffa) in Los Angeles and Ian (and his girlfriend, Melanie) and the "smosh" house are in Sacramento, I'm constantly flying back and forth. Smosh is the name of our YouTube channel.
I was on the plane again, but this time with many other YouTubers and flying to Louisiana. YouTube decided to make movies each year. This year's theme was horror. Ian, Felix, Jenna Marbles, and I were the main characters. There were tons of other YouTubers coming. A lot of them were on the plane this very moment, while others were getting on later.
Did I mention YouTube rented out a hotel? Crazy! The only downside was that we were staying there for 1 month. I got my friend/coworker Ryan [2] to make sure the videos were posted at the correct times.
"The plane is landing. Prepare for plane landing. Please turn off all electronics. The plane is landing." The intercom said. I jerked out of my half-awake half-asleep state and turned off my phone. Kalel, next to me, smiled. She knew of my fear of planes. Kalel squeezed my hand. I smiled and squeezed hers. Next to us Melanie and Ian were laughing. I wondered what about...
After we safely landed, it was 12 P.M.-ish so Ian, Kalel, Melanie, and I bought airport-food. It wasn't that bad. Then we started driving to our hotel. It's called the "Louisiana Hotel". [3]
Ian asked what time it was. I smiled to myself. Time to show off my sweet watch from Tokyo again.
"Well, according to my amazing watch *I dramatically showed off my watch to Ian* it is 2:37 P.M." Melanie and Kalel chuckled as Ian groaned.
"Not your watch again..."
"It has a TIMER!" I exclaimed for the thousandth time.
"Why would you ever need a timer on your watch?" Ian asked.
"You're just jealous." I shook my head and turned back around.
When we got to the hotel, a middle-aged man whose name-tag read "Mr. John" greeted us.
"Hello, hello, hello, hello. My name is Mr. John. You must be Anthony, Ian, Kalel, and..." His voice trailed off.
"Melanie," Melanie finished.
"Ahh, yes. My daughter watches you guys and talks non-stop about your videos." We laughed. He walked behind his desk. So far the hotel was decent and super clean. I felt like a giant mudball rolling through a newly cleaned kitchen.
"Here are your keys. Ladies are in one room, men in another. Enjoy your stay." We each got a key and began walking to our room, having know clue what a big disaster our stay would end up being...
[1] I don't think this is true, and it's probably a made up fact. :)
[2] Ryan meaning Ryan Todd, one of their "helpers". (I made him sound like an elf. LOL XD)
[3] What a generic name... :P
Ooohh! Cliff-hanger on the FIRST CHAPTER! You'll see that I love cliff-hangers a lot. :D
Not all of the story will be written in Anthony's point of view. :P I'm glad I finally wrote it! Feedback is appreciated! :D
